Enterprise Account Executive

The U.S. construction permitting process is a black box. Over 500,000 forms and 20,000 processes, yet 95% of cities use the same building code. Every permitting delay costs businesses revenue, stalls expansion, and disrupts construction schedules.
Founded in 2022 by builders, entrepreneurs, and industry experts, GreenLite eliminates permitting uncertainty for developers nationwide.
We combine AI-powered technology with an in-house team of registered architects, engineers, and city planners to deliver the fastest, most predictable path to permit approval. Our expert-led compliance process ensures plans are code-ready before submission, reducing revisions, delays, and costs.
GreenLite has raised $86M in venture funding from leading investors including Insight Partners, Energize Capital, Craft Ventures, LiveOak Ventures, Trust Ventures, and Chicago Ventures. National brands, including Walgreens, TD Bank, and Driven Brands, trust us to accelerate approvals, reduce risk, and unlock growth.

The Role

At GreenLite, we’re not just building a sales team—we’re building the future of the licensing and permitting industry. After launching our sales org in early 2024, we’re continuing to grow our team of trailblazers. This is your opportunity to get in early at a fast-growing tech startup and help shape how we sell, scale, and succeed. If you’re hungry to make an immediate impact, learn fast, and accelerate your career—this is your seat at the table.

What you’ll be doing:

• Close New Business: You’ll drive full-cycle sales—closing warm leads from SDRs, but more importantly, sourcing and closing your own outbound leads. Building your own pipeline isn’t optional in this role; it’s critical to your success. From first touch to signed contract, you’ll build urgency, craft strategic deals, and sell value at every step.

• Grow Key Accounts: You’ll own existing client growth. Renewals, expansions, upsells—you’ll turn today’s customers into long-term, loyal partners.

• Own Relationships: Build trusted, consultative relationships that last. Understand your clients’ businesses and challenges—and position GreenLite as the obvious solution.
  Lead Qualification: Run discovery calls, ask the right questions, and uncover real needs. You’ll know when to push and when to pass.

• Educate & Persuade: Tell a story that lands. Whether it’s a sales deck or a spontaneous phone call, you’ll make GreenLite’s value impossible to ignore.

• Manage Your Pipeline: Keep deals moving and data clean. You’ll manage your pipeline in Hubspot with precision and transparency.

• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Partner cross functionally to ensure clients get an outstanding experience.

• Stay Sharp: You’ll monitor market trends, competitor moves, and customer feedback to refine your strategy and messaging.

• Report on Results: Keep leadership in the loop with clear, consistent pipeline updates and performance reports.

• Level Up the Sales Org: Share ideas, improve processes, and help build the playbook that future AEs will follow.

• Organizational and Time Management Skills: Demonstrated ability to manage multiple leads simultaneously, prioritize tasks effectively, and maintain accurate and organized records within CRM tools

• Resilience: Ability to bounce back from setbacks and maintain a positive attitude in the face of challenges

• Coachability: Openness to feedback, willingness to learn from colleagues, and a commitment to continuous improvement
